Every person has different mindset behind buying a car; somebody is driven by their passion while some by their need of transportation. We believe that people should not over think but must follow some basic steps before making a purchasing decision.
1) Set your Budget range
Set realistic budget within your limit and savings. It should not be allowed to eat all your savings or future EMIs burden. Circumstances can change ever so get into strict calculations. You can go for two methods of buying your car either by opting for good car finance company. Cash purchase can also be good option for you as you will be free after all payments and can also avail some ongoing sale offer on prices.
2) Research and deep inspection of car
Don’t leave any points of checking the car before final deal. You can read our blog of best checkpoints at https://vitacars.business.blog/2020/01/13/tips-for-buying-a-second-hand-car/. Try different models of your choice to get the best. Assessment of cars is very neseccary and should be executed at various parameters as age of car, insurance, model, safety features installed, depreciation value and many more. This is also the time to contact your insurance company. There is nothing worse than getting a new car to find out that the insurance is through the roof. Make sure that the cost of insurance, licensing and registration is included in your budget.
3) Test drive Vehicle and verify
Once you have found a few vehicles and spoken with the owners and visually inspected the cars it is time for a test drive. Try to drive on freeway and street driving.
The goal is to notice anything unusual about the vehicle.
• Leave the radio off and listen for unusual noises.
• Inspect the tyres. Is the wear even and when driving is the alignment straight?
• Visually inspect the entire vehicle.
• Look for unusual wear spots, dents or other indicators of past accidents.
• Open the hood and trunk, they should be relatively clean.
• Look at the battery connections.
• Must ask for maintenance records from the seller.
• Don’t rush into a decision unless you are satisfied completely about the vehicle
